Elizabeth Olsen: Growing Up into a Superhero
伊莉莎白．歐森：超級英雄養成記
Elizabeth Olsen is now well known for her place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but she’s not the biggest star in her family. She grew up in the shadow of two very popular child actors—twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. Thanks to her sisters, she learned that fame comes at a price.
Olsen started performing in films with her sisters when she was just four, but their popularity scared her. She remembers them nearly getting into car accidents because the media kept following them around, and she almost gave up acting because of it. She also considered changing her name so people wouldn’t compare her with them. However, in the end, she did neither of these things and focused on studying acting more seriously instead. The young actor wanted to avoid what her sisters went through, so she chose not to start her professional career until she was an adult.
She studied theater at New York University and started performing in plays in 2008. In 2011, she starred in her first film. Her performance earned her several award nominations.
伊莉莎白．歐森現在因其在漫威電影宇宙的地位而聞名，但她並非家族中名氣最大的明星。她在兩個非常受歡迎的童星（雙胞胎瑪莉-凱特與艾希莉．歐森）的光環下長大。由於姊姊們的緣故，她瞭解到名氣是要付出代價的。
歐森年僅四歲時就開始和姊姊們在電影中演出，但她們的人氣讓她感到害怕。她記得她們差點出車禍，因為媒體一直跟蹤她們，而她差點因此而放棄表演。她也考慮過改名，這樣人們就不會拿她與她們比較。然而，最後她這兩件事都沒有做，反而專注在更加認真學習表演上。這名年輕的演員想避免姊姊經歷的事，因此她選擇成年後才開始她的職業生涯。
她在紐約大學攻讀戲劇表演，並於二○○八年開始在戲劇中演出。二○一一年，她主演了她的第一部電影。她的演出讓她獲得了好幾個獎項的提名。


Over the next few years, Olsen acted in several small but popular films. She made the jump to big-budget movies when she starred in 2014’s Godzilla. That was followed by an appearance as Wanda Maximoff in Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. Marvel is now a major part of Olsen’s career. Audiences loved her acting so much that her character has already appeared in five movies and an award-winning TV series.
 However, Olsen’s success has not come without its challenges. Sometimes Olsen’s anxiety disorder gets in her way. Simply being in a room with other people can set off a panic attack that causes her heart to race and hands to shake. She has since learned ways to help manage her anxiety and even cowritten a children’s book about the topic.
Elizabeth Olsen has earned her success but was also patient enough to wait until she was ready to handle the fame that comes with it. It’s a trait that separates her from the character she plays on-screen. “I feel patience is my superpower,” she says.
在接下來幾年，歐森出演了幾部小成本但受歡迎的電影。她主演二○一四年的《哥吉拉》時跳到了大成本製作的電影。在那之後她在漫威的《復仇者聯盟二：奧創紀元》中飾演了汪達．馬克希莫夫。漫威現在是歐森事業的重心。觀眾很喜歡她的表演，以致於她的角色已出現在五部電影和一部得獎的電視影集中。
然而，歐森的成功並非沒有挑戰。有時歐森的焦慮症會對她產生妨礙。光是和其他人在一個房間裡就可能引發恐慌，而使她心跳加快、雙手顫抖。之後她學會了幫助掌控焦慮的方法，甚至與人合寫了一本關於這個主題的童書。
伊莉莎白．歐森贏得了成功，但也有足夠的耐心等到她準備好有能力應付伴隨而來的名氣。這是一個區分她與她在影視作品中的角色的特徵。她說：「我覺得耐心是我的超能力。」
